Currently, significant efforts are being directed toward improving the socio-economic status of the population and digitizing the activities of local neighborhood (mahalla) institutions. In this context, the integration of machine learning methods with demographic data provides an opportunity to develop intelligent decision support systems for local executive authorities. Given that individual machine learning algorithms often encounter limitations when training on complex demographic indicators, this study implements optimization through stacking ensemble techniques. Based on nine primary parameters, XGBoost, regression algorithms, and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) were selected as base learners and integrated into a stacking ensemble framework. The methodology involved preprocessing the database, constructing the ensemble model, and utilizing Ridge Regression as the meta-learner, with model parameters optimized via cross-validation. Experimental results demonstrate that the stacking ensemble model significantly outperforms standalone models in terms of predictive accuracy and robustness. Specifically, the stacking ensemble achieved a 36.9% improvement in performance compared to the standalone XGBoost model. This approach ensures high-precision forecasting of demographic indicators, providing a reliable foundation for decision support systems within executive government agencies.
